Listen free to Faust – Faust IV (Krautrock, The Sad Skinhead and more). Faust IV is a 1973 album by the German krautrock group Faust. The album is included in the book 1001 Albums You Must Hear Before You Die, where it is referred to as a "krautrock classic". The band did not release another album for 20 years, and with a different lineup. The album was recorded at the Manor Studio in England. As the sessions took too long to complete, producer Uwe Nettelbeck opted to complete the album with material that was recorded at previous sessions in Wümme, Germany
Faust IV is an album which veers giddily between two distinct styles. On the one hand, you have a quirky style of highly avant-garde krautrock that must surely have fed into the Henry Cow sound (in fact, Henry Cow's early sound can be summed up as a mashup of the more avant ends of Canterbury and Faust-styled Krautrock - a heady mixture which could have only come about at Virgin). On the other hand, you have whimsical, comedic songs which remind me an awful lot of the work of Kevin Ayers (see The Sad Skinhead, for instance).

IV was Faust's second release for Richard Branson's fledgling Virgin Records. So, do you know Faust yet? As an album, IV matches the band's trajectory: Jumbled, fragmented, with random data integrity issues, but seeming more the brainchild of inspired pop anarchists than calculating avant-gardists.
